Exactly. Discrimination is in American blood, therefore it is a characteristic of the country itself. It's also human nature, but not as severe ad the United States.

You must be pretty closed minded to believe this and not see the extremely blatant irony screaming right out of this text. I'll be ready to slap you in the face with some simple logic now.
Here's some simple logic from Jester:
Humans in general like to generalize people and put them into groups. This allows for issues to be looked at more simply, although mostly incorrect. This leads to stereotyping, racism, sexism and other actions where people are grouped based solely on opinion. And no, it's not just white people (Or people with "American Blood") who do these things, practically all humans do.
It is really unfortunate because this starts a cycle. As people look onto others expecting them to be something they are not, they can change into it. For example, people looking onto Muslims as terrorists and bombers, some people can just be like "**** it, that's what you want? I'll give it to you". It is a terrible cycle.

And what I said earlier:
|
It's not because they're white or because of their culture, if that's what you're saying. Its happening because when there's a minority group in anything they are always looked upon differently. It could happen in any country if that country had similar levels of immigration as the US.
|
So, to conclude with my statement: All humans stereotype (Like what you are doing right now) and the United State's long history of discrimination is not because of their "Blood" or because they are "American" or "white" but simply because of it's unprecedented high levels of immigration. That's it. If you try to take it to some other level (like most people in this thread are doing) you are being as racist or stereotypical as any "American" is against Muslims.

America has committed Genocide. They killed almost the entire Native population.
|
That is completely false. Small Pox and the Spanish Armada killed the vast majority of the Native Americans. Small Pox alone killed at least 80% of them. Of course there was a large amount of severe discrimination and wars against them after the United States was founded with horrible phenomenons such as the Trail of Tears, but things like that have always happened when there is a competing society next door occupying valuable resources. Putting this information out there as if to suggest that America is some sort of evil, racist titan is discriminatory in of itself. Seriously, what the hell man? Every. Single. Country. Has done that at some point. Do you know how many times England was invaded before it became the UK? Or how China got so big?
